Matsya (Fish in Sanskrit) was the first Avatara of Vishnu, and Story of Bhakta Dhruva 

According to legend, the mantri to the king of pre-ancient Dravida, Satyavata who later becomes known as Manu was washing his hands in a river when a little fish swam into his hands and begged him to save it's life. He put it in a jar, which it soon outgrew; he successively moved it to a tank, a river and then the ocean. The fish then warned him that a deluge would occur in a week that would destroy all life. Manu therefore built a boat which the fish towed to a mountaintop when the flood came, and thus he survived along with some "seeds of life" to re-establish life on earth

Goddess Parvati agrees to the request of Laxmi to protect Dhruv in the forest. She goes to the forest on her Vahan (tiger) and saves Dhruv from a cheetah.
